Gospel Literature
There have been many great books written by our church leaders. I want my children to gain an appreciation for this gospel literature as they grow up. The church magazines are such an excellent source of gospel literature that they are an essential in our home. I am still searching for the best books to share with my younger children, but I have compiled a list of books I want my children to read from age 12. We own some of the books, and others we have access to in GospeLink.
